‘Child Austin’ Schofield fired again at Tank, telling him, “You will be subsequent.”
Schofield is the following highest-ranked fighter for Tank Davis’ WBA belt, offered he doesn’t vacate it, and it could be an attention-grabbing battle for the followers in comparison with his present scheduled match towards the tremendous featherweight Lamont Roach Jr. That man has zero energy and is a defensive wizard.
Tank has disenchanted followers together with his selection of opponents within the final six years since 2018, and Schofield can be a welcome enchancment. A battle between Tank Davis and Schofield can be extra entertaining for followers than a match between the Baltimore native and Shakur Stevenson.
The WBA light-weight champion, Tank Davis, stated Schofield “18-0, 12 KOs) was getting his bottom beat Giron (20-4, 13 KOs) of their battle at The Theater at Virgin Motels Las Vegas.

When Schofield returned to his nook after the spherical ended, he missed the stool when sitting down and fell on the canvas. Later within the battle, Schofield was knocked down in spherical eleven when he was caught by a left hand from Giron when trying to hit him with an enormous proper.
Regardless of these two incidents, Schofield nonetheless received the battle by a large 12-round unanimous determination, scores 118-109, 116-111, and 118-109. In comparison with a few of the undercard fights on the Golden Boy-promoted card.
Schofield’s was one of many extra drama-filled. That’s his model of preventing, which was way more entertaining to look at than the headliner on the High Rank card proven on ESPN final Saturday evening. That was a painfully boring battle, similar to the earlier encounter.
Tank Davis has a title protection towards Lamont Roach developing on a still-to-be-determined date in January. However as soon as that battle is out of the best way, it might clear the best way for Schofield to problem Tank for his WBA title in mid-2025.
